What is Neck Liposuction?

Neck liposuction removes localized fatty deposits through very small, imperceptible incisions to refine the neck contour and thin the appearance of the face. This has become an even more popular procedure in the “selfie age.”

Who is a Good Candidate for Neck Liposuction?

Good candidates for neck liposuction are men and women in good physical and mental health with good quality skin who have poorly defined neck contours and a jawline that suffers from excess fat. This is often genetic in nature. Clients should have realistic expectations for their outcome based on consultation with Dr. Shermak.

What is the Procedure for Neck Liposuction?

Surgery is performed under anesthesia so the patient is comfortable. Small incisions are created around the earlobes and under the chin. At the end of surgery, small sutures are placed to close the incisions. Dressing includes a foam pad and chin strap. It is recommended the patient use the foam and chin strap over the first week until suture removal, then wearing only the chin strap when at home.

How do I Decide to Undergo Kybella or Neck Liposuction?

Kybella is a nonsurgical injectable treatment that relies on fat dissolvers to help impact neck contour. Kybella requires 2-3 treatments and often has associated swelling after treatment that can last about a week. Neck liposuction is a “one and done” treatment with nice results visible within a week of surgery that only get better over time.

What is the recovery like for neck liposuction?

Surgery is performed on an outpatient basis. You may experience temporary swelling, numbness, and bruising that respond well to head elevation, compressive wrapping, ice packs and Arnica Montana herbal supplementation. Most patients resume regular activities and return to work within a week, with swelling taking up to a couple of months to resolve.
